this one is for a friend i have named fanny and dont get any perv ideas, thats actually a real nordic name..
this is for a friend called mikael, A.k.a "mekky"
Arc is my old nickname, and it looked better than "nannari" on this sig.
The katakana there spells "nanari" so.. yea
Im gonna make some more, too!

im in the mood now.
Adding this one eh..
Feel free to comment on them, thats kinda why i posted em..
Im just following the hype of abstract/grungy BGs.. so it's all just to make something that looks pretty decent in a short amount of time, and minimal effort..

I've never really liked that style of signature, TBH. They all look basically the same, no matter who creates them. Generic backgrounds made from filters and layer styles, and then some half-hearted text slapped on top... No offense to you Nannari- I mean in general, this is basically what I don't like about the style.
That aside, I like the colours of the first two images. Mmmnn... can't really think of much else to say, sorry. :/ It's nice to see people being creative though, keep it up!

Like you said moogs. The text looks very half-hearted, especially on this one. But i dont really mind. I just like making this style atm ^^

Fanny = EANNY?
I think the last one ("messy") would be absolutely incredible if it were less busy.

Try working with the term 'less is more' for a few sigs, see how they come out.
Personally I try to use a combination of brushes and filters with or without a good render. Interesting and different sizes/shapes of the sig can be very cool too, with a render maybe coming right out of the image. (Use the png format for good transparency - gif can only save as transparent or non transparent, whereas png has different levels of transparency.)

Its just the font that looks a bit weird..
The messy one.. yeah.. i know i noticed it too but i just zoomed thru it and forgot to save the psd file!

But i personally loved the colors and the flowery thingies on it..
Thanks for your feedback!

bakemaster will kill me if i make another popout.. Look at the sig i have atm, if thats not "minimalistic" then what is. I just want something simple, which I enjoy making and still looks good.
I have long forespoken the excellence of .png. Im not interested in another style which you seem to be wanting me to do. Instead, oh allmighty sigmaker, tell me what i can do with THESE..?
